Aroma: Dark Fruit and Sweet Warmth

The nose opens with a rich mix of stewed plums, raisins and sultanas. These dark fruit notes create an inviting first impression, while hints of toffee add a soft, buttery sweetness. A touch of liquorice brings gentle depth, giving the aroma a refined edge without making it feel heavy.

With time in the glass, further details emerge. The influence of the sherry casks adds a rounded, fruit-filled quality, while the long maturation brings a calm, polished feel. This is a whisky to enjoy slowly, allowing each layer to develop before the first sip.

Palate: Luxurious, Full-Flavoured and Smooth

The palate is generous and richly textured. Notes of Montecristo cigars bring a dry, elegant character, followed by roasted coffee beans and dark chocolate. Chestnut honey adds a naturally sweet touch, while beeswax gives the whisky a smooth, rounded feel.

The strength provides plenty of flavour without taking away from its balance. Enjoy it neat for a full, concentrated experience, or add a small splash of water to open the whisky and reveal even more of its fruit, sweetness and oak-led complexity.

A Rewarding Finish for Slow Sipping

The finish lingers with dark chocolate, coffee, dried fruit and a delicate touch of liquorice. Its layers gradually fade rather than disappearing quickly, making every sip feel considered and complete. The result is a mature Islay whisky that combines richness with refinement and power with control.
